NIS delivers oil that is not of domestic origin exclusively through the “Janaf” oil pipeline, and since December 5, it is not possible to buy Russian oil. However, the unhindered purchase and transportation of oil originating from other countries will continue, states NIS in a letter delivered to the editorial office of the Biznis.rs portal.

NIS imports three quarters of the total amount of oil used for processing, while 25 percent of the oil is of domestic origin. The largest share in the total volume of imported oil has been Iraqi oil “Kirkuk” for years, and the company does not depend on the import of Russian oil.

Also, NIS emphasizes that maintaining stability on the domestic market of oil derivatives is the company’s priority, as well as that the Serbian market is properly supplied with all types of fuel.

When it comes to the embargo on the import of Russian oil transported by sea, as well as the price limitation, it is not yet certain how much Russian oil will remain on the global market. Also, Russia has indicated that it may stop deliveries to countries that accept the price cap.
